Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'project engineer' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner's acceptable degree fields (electrical engineering or architecture and interior design) were too disparate, failing to establish a requirement for a degree in a specific specialty. Furthermore, the described job duties were found to be more consistent with those of an electrician, an occupation that does not normally require a bachelor's degree.
